Muscat: The Royal Oman Police (ROP) warns against new fraudulent activity targeting youngsters, whereby a fraudulent announcement for fake jobs is sent via SMS
In a statement ROP said: The Directorate General of Inquiries and Criminal Investigations has detected a new fraudulent activity targeting youngsters, whereby a fraudulent announcement for fake jobs is sent via SMS in order to lure the victims and persuade them to carry out specific online businesses in return for financial profits. Once these amounts are transferred to their bank accounts, they are immediately redirected to other offshore accounts through exchange companies. The Royal Oman Police urges citizens and residents to verify the authenticity and source of published announcements and report any relevant suspicions to the authorities concerned.
